PC fax receive

If you turn on the PC Fax Receive feature your machine will store received faxes in memory and send them to your PC automatically. You can then use your PC to view and store these faxes.

Even if you have turned off your PC (at night or on the weekend, for example), your machine will receive and store your faxes in its memory. The LCD will show the number of stored faxes received, for example:

PC Fax Msg:001

When you start your PC and the PC Fax Receiving software runs, your machine transfers your faxes to your PC automatically.

To transfer the received faxes to your PC you must have the PC Fax Receive software running on your PC. (See PC-FAX receiving in Chapter 6 in the Software User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.)

If you choose Backup Print On, the machine will also print the fax.

Note

If you choose Backup Print On, the machine will also print the faxes at your machine so you will have a copy. This is a safety feature in case there is a power failure before the faxes are forwarded or a problem at the receiving machine. The machine can store faxes up to 60 hours if there is a power failure.
